shill bidding....?

i recently had a run in with someone who was shill bidding (it was an actual store) and the person had the same feedback from the same 3 people over and over and over....and the person kept bidding on every item that was already bid on, (im talking like 12-15 items) and the person also started the bidding to.. So today i reprted the store to ebay... i sent a few article numbers foer examples, but i could not send them all. Wil ebay still be able to tell if there really was shill bidding??

1. Yes, I had reported someone for doing the same. Depending on the severity and the reputation of the seller, the penalties from ebay vary. In my case the seller was suspended for three months and the schill accounts were closed permanently.
